Volvo truck shipments continue to fall

According to February sales figures released by AB Volvo, the Swedish truck maker shipped 1,400 fewer trucks globally than it did in the same month the year before.

The decline in Volvo’s sales was most obvious in North America, falling 46 percent, extending a sluggish sales arc that began early last year. Deliveries of Volvo and Mack brands in North America fell to 2,462 trucks, down from 4,604 a year ago.
